I think a lot of people who own ipods, choose them in the first place because of simplicity, most of them probably have never heard of rockbox or would ever have a need to install it.
I'm not saying it appllies to every ipod owner, but I believe if there was a comparison between the proportion of ipod owners inclined to install rockbox and the total number of ipod owners, vs the same scenario for iriver owners, the proportion of iriver owners who would install rockbox would be greater, than for the ipod owners.
I believe this is the case because if people wanted a feature packed player they wouldn't get an ipod in the first place, and if they don't need a feature intensive player they certainly don't need the complexities of rockbox.

I think rockbox for ipods is a waste of time, i'm sure many people with disagree but that is just how I feel.
